Hop, skip and count to 120
First graders count to 120 by ones and start skip counting by 2s, 5s and 10s. Counting by 10s is the big one: it shows how our number system works, since 10, 20, 30 are just 1, 2, 3 tens. They also find 10 more and 10 less than a number in their heads, like 34 and 44. Skip counting by 2s helps count pairs, and by 5s helps count nickels and tally marks. The click is when a child counts a pile of craft sticks by 10s instead of one at a time.
First graders need rhythm, a hundred chart and lots of things to count.
